Do you have one? Have you looked for a jailbreak?
Is only a matter of time.

How about the fact that anything you want to plug into the unit,
like say a DVD Player, all requires that you buy it from Apple.
Have a Portable USB DVD player already?? or a USB Portable HD??
oops it wont fit
you need the " Apple Adaptor"
How about that 3G network you want to connect to because after all your
already
paying for it with your I-Phone.......oops need to buy an Apple Micro-sim
card for Access plus a
new data plan (depending upon your carrier)
So you just downloaded that HD U-tube video..damn there is no way to play
it on that 47"HD LCD Panel in your Living Room.
Hey...Look Pamela Anderson running naked down the Street....Damn no
Camera!!

On the other hand its lighter than your Laptop/Netbook ,easier to carry.

You couldn't force me to buy one if my life depended on it. Its for
idiots with more money than sense however they won't admit they bought
something that's completely daft.

No need to. When it has been, it'll be posted online.
